You could do what you suggested, but I split it up to display the math involved a bit more clearly...
If I was me as I usually am, I would've put something like this instead:
Code:
dummy=(position<<8)*90:result_high=div32 1024:degrees_whole = result_high >> 6
dummy=(position<<8)*9000:result_low=div32 1024:degrees_fraction=(result_low>>6)//100
lcdout $fe,1,"Degrees:",DEC3 degrees_whole,":",DEC2 degrees_fraction
